    Linguistic Sub-field: General Linguistics

    Meeting Description:

    The purpose of the meeting is to foster a better comparative understanding of the nature of verbal and signed languages through a confrontation between specialists of both verbal and signed languages. Special attention will be devoted to the methodology and analytic procedures employed in both fields of investigation. The ultimate aim of the colloquium is to favour the definition of shared theoretical constructs and methodologies for the study of both classes of codes. On such common grounds, the investigation of signed languages may possibly provide new insights for the understanding of verbal languages and viceversa.

    The colloquium is on a strict invited-communication basis. A round table on application and pedagogical aspects of signed languages will close the colloquium.
